Trusted non-slip bath coating in Isle of Dogs

About our non-slip bath coating in Isle of Dogs

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Isle of Dogs

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Isle of Dogs

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Isle of Dogs. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Isle of Dogs?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your E14 postcode.

Are there extra charges for Isle of Dogs?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Isle of Dogs. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Isle of Dogs

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
